Chunky Teach Candle Holder Small
We have a passion for vernacular architecture and the old domestic dwellings of Ireland. Teach is inspired by the idea of ‘home’. Family and friends all sat around the lighting fire.
Teach is hand crafted in our workshop from sustainable Irish timber and is finished in locally produced oil. Locally sourced and environmentally friendly, Irish timber is a durable, natural and renewable material.
Teach is a functional, contemporary decoration that you can use to brighten up your mantelpiece and a set of three is a beautiful focal point as a centrepiece on a table. It is a unique gift that you will not find on the high street.

Great products made by people we know
When we started Quinlans Gift Shop in 1988, we wanted to offer high-quality, carefully chosen products to our customers in a friendly environment.




We’re well aware of the impact that consumer purchasing decisions can have on the environment. As a retailer, we feel our highest responsibility is to ensure that we’re taking measures to minimize our impact, and the impact of our customers' purchases, on the environment.
Here are some of the ways we plan to play our part for the planet:
- Sustainable packaging
- Re-use of cardboard and brown paper received from suppliers in customer orders
- Continuously educate our team about the environmental crisis and explore ways that we can use our business to help
- Deal primarily with Irish suppliers to minimize our carbon footprint
- Aiming to be plastic free
Quinlans was started by Brigin and John P Quinlan in Macroom, County Cork. We’ve had some fantastic people join our team over the years, and any success that we’ve had is as much theirs as it is ours. Our current team is small and we pride ourselves on cultivating a culture where people can be themselves at work, feel safe and appreciated, and have an opportunity to continuously learn and develop.
There’s something special about seeing a person master his or her craft. We’ve had the pleasure of working with some of the most talented Irish and European craft makers, from ceramics and glass to jewellery and textiles. We carefully choose the suppliers we work with and operate through trust and transparency to ensure lasting relationships are formed. We value getting to know the people behind the products that we offer.
